AT&T Nokia Lumia 920 unboxing

We just came back from one of our local AT&T store, actually two of 'em, looking for the new Lumia 920. Our first store only had the Nokia hero phone in black (we were going for glossy white) so we had to drive a few miles in the other direction to grab one. Lesson? Call your store first to make sure you have availability. We ended up paying $350 for it as the rep extended our contract from 17 months back to 24, saving us a few hundred bucks.

No stores had charging pads either but if you press the store manager on it, they should be able to order you one for free. The HTC 8X was also in short supply, with a lot of stores reporting no-stock. And although we didn't see any lines, we did see a few folks purchasing the 920, so word is out.

Check out our quick unboxing video to see the Lumia 920 in its mediocre enclosure. And don't forget to share your AT&T Windows Phone 8 experience in our comments here for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate.

The headphones that came with my original focus were actually not bad and they had the volume/call controls on the wires. I think this will be the first smartphone I've ever had that didn't at least come with a set :(
For $99 you cant expect to get everything for free, I guess.

How is getting it for $350 saving you "a few hundred bucks" when the off contract price is $450? A bit misleading there. That is awesome they provided a discount for only 7 months of contract extension though. Is there a graduated scale for this or is it standard ATT negotiations? Many of us with WP7 devices under various contracts would like to know!

The 349 price is the early upgrade and 1 year contract pricing for the L920. I guess the original $99 pricepoint for the L900 and them letting potential L920 buyers upgrade early is at&t's way of appeasing L900 buyers.

I called yesterday and got the same info I think paying $450.00 would be smarter then the $100.00 off cause that means my upgrade will still be there when I need it or if I want to to leave at&t I can im not adding more months while almost paying full price when I have a blahphone upgrade right now which pisses me off

Hey guys, I ordered mine on the 7th in cyan. It's on the way with the free charging plate coming in a separate package. This is my 2nd smartphone, Samsung Focus was my first. I have to say that the Lumia 920 is the first phone I'm not getting a case for, since it's so beautiful and sturdy, but I am getting the ArmorSuit to cover it with a clear protector to keep it from getting scratched :D hope everyone else enjoys the 920!

I buyed the the white lumia 920 today. Here in germany you can get it without contract if you want, so I payed 597 euros. In the store i could hold all 4 colors in my hands, and in my opinion the black version looks lighter - I mean you can easier see on the other colors how big this phone is. Hope you can understand what i mean... but i choosed the white and i love it! Sadly there is no source here to buy the charging pad, no store sells it :-(

I'm totally with you that the glossy white 920 looks and feel awesome!! That's what I'm getting.
Got to try the black 920 as well, it looks nice, but not as cool. Wish I could see and try the Yellow as well, but ATT don't have Yellow in stores.

I saw her looking at me from across the room. My body shook with excitement. I walked casually towards her in anticipation. Her sexy curves called out to me. Her skin was shiny and bright white. I picked her up, but was surprised by her weight, and caressed her in my hand. My eyes teared as I turned her on for the first time. Then as I was just about to do naught things and play with her...
My wife slapped me across the head and said, "It's just a phone you stupid idot"!
Excuse me while I take out the trash.

Wonder why they switched the charger from the kind they had with the 900. Maybe to save a bit on cost? I could of swore that I saw a video from a 920 in Canada(?) that included the same style charger as the 900.

Out of the 3 'ee' stores in derby uk, i got the only 920! Anyone have any opinions on the vibrate? Seems to rattle a bit and doesn't sound too clever. Small niggle on an other wise great piece of kit. Worth the wait

Got a black 920 for me and a red one for my wife. My 920 has randomly frozen on me about 7-8 times the last 12 hours. It happens randomly in any app doing nothing in particular. Any one else seen this?

Picked 920 up yesterday and really impressive. Local ATT has no clue about the capabilities of this phone. After walking the rep through all the features the rep said she may switch from Android. Here is an idea set up an Xbox at each store and let folks see smartglass in action??? Set up a kiosk with NFC tags??? Sell the sizzle!!! This thing is a great steak!!
